Liturgy & Music
Liturgy...
Work of the People, Opus Dei. An approach to a life, open to charge and theleading of God. Liturgy is “The Daily” chanting of the Psalms and the Liturgy of the Hours.”
"Nothing is to be preferred to the Work of God."
While Saint Benedict established this foundational priority in the 6th century, it is also one of the most frequently referenced themes in modern Catholic teaching. We sing and pray the Psalms, it is the Work of the
People… The Liturgy.
Benet Hill Monastery follows the Rule of Benedict in our Liturgy, giving life to the Work of the People.

Readers and proclaimers of the world
Benet Hill welcomes all to join us on Sunday morning at 10:15 AM for Mass. If you become a regular attendee and enjoy the liturgy for the Sunday Assembly, you are welcome to talk to Sarah about becoming a reader and proclaimer of the Word or of the prayer intentions each Sunday. Training is provided in an ongoing supportive environment
Assembly | Sing with Sarah
When you become a part of the Benet Hill Community, you will understand that we enjoy and encourage singing! Check the link below to enjoy the upcoming unfamiliar music that will be introduced in our Sunday Liturgy. This includes new mass settings, songs, and direction for special services.
Liturgy of the hours
All are welcome to join the Sisters of Benet Hill Monastery for the daily singing of the Divine Office, also known as the Liturgy of the Hours. Because we change the liturgy for feasts, commons, and ordinary liturgical celebrations, it is important to understand the basics of the prayer. Please look at the YouTube video before you join us as a visitor or retreat guest. I believe your prayer experience will be better enjoyed if you watch before you arrive. Also, please come 10 minutes early and find a seat with one of the sisters so they might guide you.
We will use this Mass Setting for Ordinary Time – Jan 18-Feb 15.
